Steve,


From the "Data Area Operations" section of the RPG manual:

"A data structure defined with a U in position
23<http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r3/topic/books_web/c0925085332.htm#HDRD23>of
the definition specifications indicates that the data structure is a
data
area. You may specify the DTAARA keyword for a data area data structure, if
specified you can use the IN, OUT and UNLOCK operation codes to specify
further operations for the data area. The data area is automatically read
and locked at program initialization time, and the contents of the data
structure are written to the data area when the program ends with LR on. If
the data area for a data area data structure is not found, it will be
created with an initial value of blanks. If the library list was searched
for the data area, the new data area will be created in QTEMP."

Note the last two sentences.

Regards,

Rory
